Prince William helps Meghan and Harry during royal dispute

There are claims Prince William was forced to step in during a dispute between the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and the Queen and Prince Charles.

As royal commentator Omid Scobie explained on podcast On Heir, the Duke of Cambridge had to step in and fight for Prince Harry and Meghan to have a bigger budget for their communication team.

Scobie claims the Duke and Duchess were not entitled to their own communication team because Harry isn't an heir to the throne.

"Prince Harry is not a direct heir to the throne and only a direct heir to the throne can have their own household," he explains.

In this final episode of The Windsors, we explore the extent to which Prince William became the beneficiary of relentlessmedia fascination, and at times, intrusion. (Article continues.)

"They’ve hired Sarah Latham, who is a former PR Director from the British PR company Freuds which is a big PR powerhouse over here, but also has a massive background in politics.

"She was on the transition team for the then President-elect Barack Obama in 2008 and she was on the campaign trail as an adviser with Hillary Clinton in the most recent run for president.

"And she’s American, dual heritage, very much in line with what the couple is all about and I think it helps having someone that understands both cultures, because we’ve seen over time that that difference between the US and UK work culture can cause some issues or frictions in the workplace.

"So great for them."

Instead of having to share a communication team with other royals, Scobie said Prince William stepped in to fight for Harry to be able to build his own team.

"Because he understands what this means to Harry and how much he wants to achieve and also, how important Meghan and Harry are for the image and the brand of the Royal Family."
